Alopa,

Raid 0 works better if the SSDs are identical (same size and same write and read speeds) and if possible, start it with the drives blank/formatted. Raid controllers use SATA and SAS drives in most cases. You might want to consult the Forums for more information on Intel® Rapid Storage Technology.

Alopa,

We are still investigating the RST with NVMe* on Intel® X99 Chipset. Please gives some time to check this for you.
